  1. Drive your Hummer to the McShzt, buy a toy Hummer for your boy-child,
    cos 4wd's are only for boys, drive to petrol station, drive home.
    Repeat untill all toy hummers are bought.
    Girl-child can buy a Polly Pocket, how sweet.

    Still, Deep Fried Hummer could be appetizing to some.

  2. The article states -

    Brendan Bell, of the Sierra Club, said putting Hummers in Happy Meals
    is about as responsible as "dipping a Big Mac in the fry oil and
    serving it to your kids".

    What's wrong with deep fried hamburgers[1]? Or is that just my Scottish
    heritage influencing my thoughts? 🙂

    Oh dear. There was THAT photo of a English gent wearing a suspender belt (and his Landrover's exhaust pipe) that did the rounds of the internerd a few years back.

    No doubt several of you witnessed it, and no, I won't link it here on the grounds of moral decency. :o

    You can't get decent haggis over here (I've tried), so either deep
    fried (emergencies only) or steamed (as it should be) it tastes better
    back home. Australian pies taste great but are too wimpy to handle
    being deep fried, you need something that starts off like concrete
    wrapped in cardboard and ends up tasting like heaven! :-)

    good quality lung.
